Transcript of 01 - Classic Building · functionality and space, but also modern architecture with timeless...
The creation of this magnifi cent residence was
a collaboration between Classic Country Cottages’
designers and the client. As with all of Classic
Country Cottages’ homes, fl exibility and design
have produced an outstanding result: a house that
could quite easily be at home in a coastal location
or sprawling country block.
The extra-wide hallways and entry are standout
characteristics of this traditionally themed home.
Exceptionally large, open living areas with high,
fl at and cathedral ceilings complement the space,
enhancing the appearance of the home and
achieving a high level of natural light and warmth.
One of the main features of this residence is
the potential for entertaining. The kitchen and
living areas lead onto a large timber deck via glass
sliding or stacking doors, creating
a seamless transition from inside to outside that
is so often evident in a Classic design. In the
kitchen, premium Caesarstone benchtops and
a glass window splashback help with a seamless
effect. The laundry and ground-fl oor bathroom are
located nearby.
The fi rst fl oor accommodates three large
bedrooms, master with walk-in robe and ensuite,
and impressive cathedral ceilings. The large
second bedroom, which can also double as
a living area, features its own deck, covered by
the main roof and carefully positioned to allow
light in to passively heat the rooms. On the
Timeless designs Whatever your style of design, these homes suit a coastal
location or sprawling country site

ground fl oor, the fourth (guest)
bedroom is conveniently located
away from main bedrooms to ensure
privacy. The study can also be used
as a rumpus or games room for the
kids. Every space in the home was
considered and used carefully.
The wide staircase and high,
raked, gable windows have been
carefully positioned to create
a passive solar thermal device. They
also add to the roomy feel of the
home by allowing natural light to
dance off the varying ceiling planes
and blend with an unspoiled shift
between ceiling lines.
Outside, a mix of weatherboard
cladding, hardwood decking and
decorative timber balustrades,
and rich warmth of timber stairs,
create an inviting entry. The main
outdoor entertaining area, while
spacious and open, can be kept
private with bamboo or hardwood
timber screens. Extended eaves
are carefully tailored passive solar
devices and are key to ensuring
function, thermal comfort,
sustainability and an aesthetic
appearance that is an unmistakable
Classic Country Cottages design.
This home incorporates not only
functionality and space, but also
modern architecture with timeless
design. This is a home that is
relaxed, welcoming and yet striking
in its details — another stunning
Classic Country Cottages design.
